After the Zhang family experienced another farce, the county test for the children's test finally came as scheduled.

The boy test big exam, the imperial court attaches great importance to it, Zhili Xuezheng Su Qing came to Yangzhou in person, Yangzhou eight counties are divided into examination rooms, the examination room inside and outside the guard is strict, not only the county officials are catching the nest quickly, the imperial court garrison in Yangzhou also transferred soldiers to help maintain order.

Early in the morning, before dawn, Lu Zheng went out, and the shadow behind him followed, carrying a bamboo basket in his hand, and the basket contained all kinds of necessary items in the examination room.

The master and servant couldn't walk until they walked to the cross street, and the candidates who came to refer to it, the parents of the people who came to send the exam, and the guarantors who came to guarantee crowded the street.

Everyone is treated equally, they all have to line up to accept strict inspections, Guanshan Academy has long had nothing to do with the teachers and students of the academy, and it was taken over by the invigilator and the soldier Yong the day before, and today the student is in Yangzhou, how dare the people below slack off?

There are those who want to take the privilege, and those who rushed to the examination room with Lu Zheng were Tian Zepeng, Zhang Tang, Zhang Zhen and Shu Yuan.

Today, Zhang Chengxi is one of the invigilators, Zhang Tang stepped forward and wanted to cut in line, but was directly picked up by the guards, like a chicken.

Wu Fu happened to see this scene and said: "The rules are all set by the imperial court, whoever dares to violate it is against the imperial court, and students who dare to defy the laws of the imperial court will be invited out of the examination room!" ”

As soon as Wu Fu said this, Zhang Tang was so frightened that his soul was lost.

And it just so happened that the soldier who threw him turned his head and saw Lu Zheng at a glance, was slightly stunned, and said respectfully:

"Master Lu, please! Come on, go this way! ”

Lu Zheng was originally at the back of the line, but he was directly brought to the front by this soldier, and Tian Zepeng in the crowd couldn't bear it anymore.

He stood up and said loudly: "We protest, since the rules are set by the imperial court, why can Lu Zheng violate them?" ”

Wu Fu snorted coldly and said, "Did Lu Zheng violate the rules?" He has a special identity, he is a well-known talent in my Xinhe County, where is the violation of the rules to give courtesy? ”

"Uh......" Tian Zepeng's face turned red, and he was speechless for a moment.

The students in line in front of them turned their heads to look at Tian Zepeng, and their faces showed disdain.

"What's the matter, does the person surnamed Tian think he can be different? He is dreaming, how can Lu Gongzi compare with him? As far as his talent is concerned, he is not worthy of lifting shoes for Lu Gongzi! ”

"It's not a thing! Didn't you just rely on the relationship with the Zhang family? really think that he is a character, a person who relies on women's nepotism to gain a position, and dares to compare with Lu Gongzi? ”

A word from everyone, a word from me, everyone's words were unceremonious, directly causing great harm to Tian Zepeng.

Zhang Chengxi, who was also an invigilator, was hurt as much as he was hurt as soon as yesterday, and as soon as the exam started today, he found that his so-called feeling of complete control over the situation was a complete illusion.

Wu Fu is mainly responsible for this side of the examination room, he is just assisting Wu Fu in his work, and he can't speak at this time. Looking at the inside and outside of the examination room, none of the officials who caught the fast soldiers were his own people, and Lord Nie avoided suspicion, leaving Zhang Chengxi speechless to say.

Now, outside the examination room, the children of his Zhang family have been humiliated like this, he doesn't dare to let go of a fart when he stands next to Wu Fu, and the grievances in his heart can be imagined.

Anyway, the boys' test began, the county test lasted for three days, and the food and accommodation were in the examination room, and the shadow handed the basket to Lu Zheng, standing in place for a long time and not wanting to leave.

She watched Lu Zheng enter the examination room, and at the last moment, Lu Zheng suddenly turned around and smiled at her, the shadow was slightly stunned, and a touch of blush appeared on her face.

She suddenly thought in her heart that this time Childe would definitely be able to go to high school, and with this thought, she thought of all kinds of things she had experienced since Lu Zheng came to Zhang's house.

Lu Zheng has experienced so many things, and none of them have missed, this time the children's test is of great significance to Lu Zheng, how could he miss?

In Ying'er's heart, Lu Zheng is almost omnipotent, she still remembers that Lu Zheng first learned classics from her, but now Lu Zheng has become a well-known talent in Yangzhou, his poems can be read by three-year-old children in Yangzhou, Ying'er's talent can be compared, where can he compare with Lu Zheng?

Shadow stood at the door, looking at the students who came in one after another, her thoughts were flying, and she was stupid for a while.

"Look at so many students, Childe is the most different, except for the Zhang family's hostility to Childe, all the other students have great respect for Childe, in their hearts, Childe is the pride of Xinhe County!"

Shadow clenched her fists fiercely, and great confidence rose in her heart!

Today, February 2, the dragon raised its head, and the Yangzhou children's test officially started!

……

When Zhang Chengxi returned to Zhang's house, he was in a terrible mood, Mrs. Su said that the old lady was sick, his heart sank, and he immediately thought of the day before yesterday.

Seeing that her husband was in a bad mood, Mrs. Su obediently served tea to Zhang Chengxi and said, "Chengxi, how is it in the examination room today?" ”

Zhang Chengxi shook his head lightly and said, "That's it, there's nothing to say!" ”

Mrs. Su said: "Actually, Chengxi, the root of all this is on the kid surnamed Lu!" The old lady's illness is because of him, the brothers in the family are angry because of him, and even your unhappy mood is because of him.

There is a way that money can make ghosts grind, the Zhang family can spend so much silver for a boy's test, and a little more silver can't suppress this kid surnamed Lu? ”

Mrs. Su paused and said, "Chengxi, now the county exam is an opportunity, you are in the examination room, and the other people are some brave soldiers, so you can't use your brains?" ”

"Ah......" Zhang Chengxi was suddenly taken aback, and said: "Do you know that scientific research fraud is going to lose your head according to the laws of Dakang?" ”

Mrs. Su snorted and said, "Don't say it so scary, besides, are you cheating?" You're just changing a paper, who knows? There are only two or three people involved, all of whom have received silver, and they have not recommended mediocre talents to the imperial court, how can anyone know? ”

Zhang Chengxi stood up from the chair suddenly, the hairs on his body stood up, Mrs. Su really woke up the dreamer with a word!

He and Wu Fu are in charge of the county examination room, he is staring at it in the examination room, as long as he gets one person, he can replace Lu Zheng's papers, and this person is none other than the official in the county government, whose name is Ding Sifang.

Zhang Chengxi happened to know Ding Sifang and knew that his old mother was sick in bed, and every month his husband had to pay for his mother's soup and medicine in addition to supporting his wife and children.

It's just that this guy hasn't studied well, he is very good at gambling, and he has already owed nearly 100 taels of silver in gambling debts.

People who are good gamblers have a fluke mentality, and Ding Sifang happens to be short of money, doesn't all this become very simple?

Zhang Chengxi quickly made up his mind and immediately said, "Let's go, let's go to see my mother together!" ”

The ancestor of the Zhang family has a high status, once the ancestor is in good health, the whole family will not be at peace, no, today Hua Hanyun, Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Lin and others are all there.

The old lady slept in the warm pavilion, with a cotton towel wrapped around her head, and her face was very ugly. Zhang Chengxi and his wife came in to greet her, and the old lady stared at Zhang Chengxi and said:

"What? You didn't stay at your post, why did you come back? ”

Zhang Chengxi said: "I heard that my mother is sick, so I rushed back to take a look." Also, the child has a matter to report to the mother, the matter is big, the child does not dare to make the decision on his own, and the mother needs to decide! ”

"Hmm!"

Zhang's mother nodded slightly, Zhang Chengxi stood up, and said, "Okay, everyone who has nothing to do with them will go out, and I'll talk to my mother!" ”

At this time, Hua Hanyun stepped in, she was holding a plate in her hand, and there was an urn of ginseng soup on the plate, and said: "Ancestor, even if it is a big deal, you drink a few mouthfuls of soup first, otherwise you don't eat a grain of rice like this, where will we ......?"

Hua Hanyun was halfway through her words, and when she saw the eyes of the old ancestor, she was stunned for a moment, and the old ancestor waved his hand and said:

"Hanyun, let it go first, let's go out!"

Everyone went out, Zhang Chengxi came to Zhang's mother and whispered, he said for a long time, Zhang's mother's eyes flashed, and said, "Are you absolutely sure?" ”

Zhang Chengxi raised his eyebrows and said, "Mother rest assured, this matter is foolproof, there will definitely be no problem!" ”

Mother Zhang stared for a long time, the brilliance in her eyes became sharper, and she nodded: "Okay, it's accurate!" Do it now! ”

Zhang Chengxi took the order and went to the examination room immediately, just as Ding Sifang was replaced to rest, Zhang Chengxi made a move of 1,000 taels of silver, and then the two only talked a few words, and Ding Si was completely handled by Zhang Chengxi.

At the same time, the Zhang family also spread good news, Zhang's mother's illness was cured, not only began to eat, but also proposed to go to the suburbs, and asked Hua Hanyun to seal Yushan Qingxuguan with twenty taels of silver and send it up the mountain.

At this time, in the examination room, Lu Zheng was struggling to endure the unbearable stench in the examination room.

He finally experienced the imperial examination himself, it was really cruel and unbearable, everyone had a number, the size of the number was about the size of a sleeper train, and eating, drinking, and Lazar could only be in this small space.

As long as you get out of this small space, look around, it is considered cheating, and the fraud is very strict, as long as fraud is found, it will be disqualified on the spot, and there is a rule that you are not allowed to take the test again within three years.

Just stay in this small space for three days, don't think about washing up for these three days, and there are many candidates, all kinds of food, excrement, and the smell of the body are intertwined and mixed, and the smell is really indescribable.

Fortunately, Lu Zheng answered the questions smoothly, and the three days were not too long, after enduring three days, the county test was over, and the next thing was to wait for the release of the list.

The county has tried, and soon it will be the government test, and the government test will be presided over by the prefect, and after the government test, it will be a child, according to the law of Dakang, the child will not kneel when he sees the official, that is to say, after passing the government test, he can be regarded as a scholar recognized by the state.
